From Ashland: Turn onto US Route 60 West at the main intersection in Cannonsburg, near Super Quick and Dairy Queen.

Immediately turn left onto church parking lot. Please mark you calendar and plan to attend the meeting. Tell every member of your family about the cemetery preservation group and invite them to the meeting. Everyone who has loved ones buried in the cemeteries is already a member of the group. If you know of anyone who did not receive a newsletter please contact Linda Leadingham at 606-474-4627 or her e-mail address 1inda41143@yahoo.com. The group will provide a baked ham as the main meat. Please bring a covered dish, dessert or drinks to complete the meal. If you have pictures, obituaries or family stories of anyone buried in the cemeteries, please bring them with you. A printer /copier will be available to make copies for a book that is being put together about the cemeteries and the communities of Pactolus and Beckwith Branch. Also we are still looking for information about the ones buried in the unmarked graves. Our goal is to place a marker on every unmarked grave. The meeting/reunion is a good opportunity to get to know each other again. Our families have been entwined for generations. We found, through our efforts this past year, that the cemeteries have not been forgotten. There have been many visitors. Our goal is to see that the cemeteries are beautifully maintained so that those who visit will know that their ancestors are well respected and cared for.
